The true story of a royal rebel and his tragic love stars Academy Award Nominee Omar Sharif who leads a stellar cast in the ambitious mini-series tale of Crown Prince Rudolf. The Crown Prince is a mystery and a conspiracy revolving around thwarted hopes and unfulfilled love. After entering into a marriage of convenience, the young heir to the Austro-Hungarian throne begins a fateful affair with the Baroness Mary Vetsera. She, along with the other women who influenced his life, inspired this sweeping saga of epic proportions and tragic consequences. Starring Max von Thun (March of Millions), Klaus Maria Brandauer (Our of Africa, Between Strangers), Vittoria Puccini (Nero, Paz!), Christian Clavier (Napoleon, Just Visiting) and Julia Jentsch (Sophie Scholl, the Edukators), the Crown Prince was Directed by Emmy Award Nominated Robert Dornhelm (Into the West, War and Peace) and written by Didier Decoin (The Count of Monte Cristo, Jacob the Liar).
